The basics
ZFX, owned by Zeal Group, is regulated by the FCA (UK) and FSA (Seychelles), with its Asia-Pacific HQ in Hong Kong since 2018 — Chinese-language service is a clear strength. D Prime (D Prime), part of Doo Group, operates through entities regulated by the FSC (Vanuatu) and FSA (Seychelles), focusing on multi-asset access and flexible leverage.
Accounts and entry
ZFX runs three tiers: Mini from $50 (0.1-lot minimum), Standard STP from $200 (spreads from 1.3) and ECN from $1,000 (spreads from 0.2). D Prime's three tiers: Cent from $5, STP from $100 (spreads from 1.0) and ECN from $100 (spreads from 0.0). On entry cost alone, D Prime's Cent account suits tiny test capital best.
Leverage and risk
ZFX offers up to 1:2000 and D Prime 1:1000 — both far above EU/UK caps. High leverage magnifies losses as much as gains; keep effective leverage near 1:20, risk 1–2% per trade, and use strict position sizing.
Rebates and verdict
On our rates: ZFX pays $4–8/lot FX (Mini to ECN) and up to $16/lot gold; D Prime pays $3–7.5/lot FX and up to $15/lot gold. Verdict: for Chinese-language service, the MT4 ecosystem and signal tools pick ZFX; for testing with minimal capital and flexible account tiers pick D Prime. Both are available with rebates through us.
